Beyond The Gold Standard(s): Modernizing Oligonucleotide SynthesisA few weeks ago, I had the chance to sit down with OPT Congress speaker Phil Baran, Richard Lerner Chair Professor, Department of Chemistry, Scripps Research. Baran was slated to (and did) present a keynote on the innovations shaping the next generation of oligo synthesis. Here, I share the biggest takeaways I had from our conversation, touching on how he sees the science of oligo chemistry and manufacturing advancing in the near and far future.

We all know that plasmid quality is foundational in dictating the quality of the final mRNA drug substance. In this clip homing in on upstream process considerations, speakers Stu Sundseth (Tune Therapeutics), Marc Wolfgang (Sail Biomedicines), and Christian Dohmen (Ethris) outline some of the most important CQAs for plasmids and the impact they can have on the resulting quality of the mRNA drug substance for linear mRNA.
In this final segment of an Advancing RNA Live discussion, panelists April Sena, Tyler Goodwin, and Adi Nair share the most meaningful and manageable improvements the industry can be making today to upstream and downstream processes to drive down mRNA-LNP COGS.In this final segment of an Advancing RNA Live discussion, panelists April Sena, Tyler Goodwin, and Adi Nair share the most meaningful and manageable improvements the industry can be making today to upstream and downstream processes to drive down mRNA-LNP COGS.
In this opening Advancing RNA Live clip, NanoVation Therapeutics’ Dominik Witzigmann and Stealth Co’s John Zuris share the scientific advancements they’ve been watching most keenly in the LNP space, as well as some of the evolutions they’re seeing in the overall quality of our RNA-LNP products.
Together, this Advancing RNA panel briefly addresses the ongoing rise of synthetic pDNA, sharing the current benefits and limitations of working with this technology for plasmid production today.

The story of how Moderna brought one of the first mRNA vaccines to the market has all the makings of a legend we will pass down through generations. However, unlike the legends of King Arthur or The Fountain of Youth, we can celebrate that Moderna’s legendary journey was — and still is — real. Not only did the mRNA vaccines help return life to normal, but they also kickstarted the mRNA therapeutic renaissance we’re happily experiencing today.
